One of my favorites from Agatha Christie. Her thriller and mysteries
are incomparable. This one featuring the fictional character Miss Marple is
woven with an interesting plot. Primarily, I fall for the titles of her books.
Isn’t “A Murder is Announced” daring?
The novel starts with an advertisement in the local
newspaper announcing a murder at Little Paddocks on 29th October. Though the
death of Scherz at the gathering is initially believed to be a suicide, the
inspector Craddock proved his brilliance by solving the murder case arresting
Letitia Blacklock.
The fun in arranging a birthday party for Bunny was
engaging. The cake baked by the cook is wittily nicknamed as ‘Delicious Death.’
It is more of an oxymoron. Though it all added to the fun factor, another death
hits the house costing the life of Bunny. I would say that the novel had
collective emotion.
A thrilling read!
